Bibliography

The following is a list of useful resources for anyone interested in the “fictional facts” of Doctor Who.

• The Making of Doctor Who.
(Malcolm Hulke and Terrance Dicks: first edition Piccolo/Pan Books, April 1972; second edition Target/Tandem Books, November 1976) - The earliest source of dates, often direct from BBC material.

• Dr Who Special.
(edited by David Driver, Jack Lundin: BBC, November 1973) - The tenth anniversary
Radio Times
special, including many previously unpublished story details. This magazine perpetuated the “incorrect” story titles, used by many fans.

• The Doctor Who Programme Guide.
(Jean-Marc Lofficier: first edition [2 vols] WH Allen, May 1981, second edition [2 vols] Target/WH Allen, October 1981, second edition has separate volume titles “The Programmes” and “What’s What and Who’s Who”)
Doctor Who - The Programme Guide.
(Jean-Marc Lofficier: third edition Target/WH Allen, December 1989)
Doctor Who - The Terrestrial Index.
(Jean-Marc Lofficier: Target/Virgin Publishing, November 1991)
Doctor Who - The Universal Databank.
(Jean-Marc Lofficier: Doctor Who Books/Virgin Publishing, November 1992)
Doctor Who Programme Guide.
(Jean-Marc Lofficier: fourth edition Doctor Who Books/Virgin Publishing, June 1994) - The standard reference work, with most fans owning a copy of at least one of these books. A good starting point.

• Doctor Who Monthly.
(Marvel Comics Ltd.) - Richard Landen wrote a series of pseudohistories in the twentieth anniversary year: Issues 75-83 (April 1983 - December 1983) featured
The TARDIS Logs
, a list of TARDIS landings riddled with annoying little errors; issue 77 had a more concise list
Travels with the Doctor
, and a good attempt at “A History of the Daleks”; “A History of the Cybermen” (issue 83, with Michael Daniels) and
Shades of Piccolo
(UNIT history, issue 80) were both sensible, simple treatments of potential minefields.

• The Doctor Who Role Playing Game.
(FASA Corporation [US], 1985; Supplements published 1985-6) - Various dates, including much invented for the game’s purposes.

• Doctor Who.
(Marvel Comics Group [US]) - Pseudo-histories written by Patrick Daniel O’Neill: “A Probable History of the Daleks” (issue 9, June 1985), “A Probable History of the Cybermen” (issue 10, July 1985) and “The Master Log” Parts I and II (issues 14, 15, November, December 1985). Enthusiastic but ill-researched.

• The Doctor Who File.
(Peter Haining: WH Allen, September 1986) - Pages 223 to 228 contain a table listing the Doctor’s adventures and where / when they took place.

• Encyclopedia of the Worlds of Doctor Who
. (David Saunders: Piccadilly/Knight Press 1986, 1989, 1990) - An A-Z of the series with many entries giving dates.

• The Official Doctor Who & the Daleks Book.
(John Peel & Terry Nation: St Martin’s Press [US], April 1989) - Dalek history, including various other sources (comic strips etc). Approved by Terry Nation.

• In-Vision 11: UNIT Special.
(CMS, December 1988) - Includes
Down to Earth
, a history of UNIT, by Garry Bradbury. Each issue of
In-Vision
is a comprehensive analysis of an individual story, and the magazine is an indispensable reference work.

• Doctor Who - Cybermen.
(David Banks, with Andrew Skilleter, Adrian Rigelsford and Jan Vincent-Rudzki: Who Dares, November 1988; Virgin Publishing, September 1990) - Comprehensive, if elaborate, history of the Cybermen. The first, and still best, reference book of its kind.

• Doctor Who Magazine.
(Marvel Comics Ltd) - issue 174:
The TARDIS Special
(June 12th 1991) features “Journies” by Andrew Pixley, a superbly researched list of every landing made by the TARDIS. Issue 176 (August 7th 1991) contains an addendum.

• The Gallifrey Chronicles.
(John Peel: Doctor Who Books/Virgin Publishing, October 1991) - Gallifreyan history and other information. (This isn’t the same book as
The Gallifrey Chronicles
, the 2005 EDA.)

• Doctor Who Magazine Winter Special 1991 - UNIT Exposed.
(Marvel Comics Ltd, 28th November, 1991) - Includes an excellent UNIT chronology by John Freeman and Gary Russell, as well as “UNIT Exposed” by Andrew Dylan.

Acknowledgements

Lance wishes to thank...
A great many people have been involved with this book. This is the fifth version. The first -
The Doctor Who Chronology
- was produced by Seventh Door Fanzines. It covered the television series. The second -
A History of the Universe
- was published by Virgin in 1996, and covered the television series plus the New and Missing Adventures up to
Happy Endings
and
The Sands of Time
respectively. It proved very popular. Nearly ten years on, the third version was published by Mad Norwegian Press, and covered roughly twice as many stories as the Virgin edition. This is the second update of that.

Thanks first and foremost to my editors at Virgin - Mark Jones, Rebecca Levene and Simon Winstone - and, for the Mad Norwegian versions, my co-writer Lars Pearson.

Thanks to the many other people who have offered information, comments, help, material, corrections or just said nice things. In alphabetical order, these are: Ben Aaronovitch, Nadir Ahmed, Keith Ansell, John Binns, Jon Blum, David Brunt, Graeme Burk, Andy Campbell, Andrew Cartmel, Shaun Chmara, Mark Clapham, Finn Clark (big, big thanks for his comics expertise), Paul Cornell, Alex Dante, Jeremy Daw, Martin Day, Zoltan Dery, Jonathan Evans, Michael Evans, Simon Forward, Martin Foster, Gary Gillatt, Donald and Patricia Gillikin, Craig Hinton, David Howe, Edward Hutchinson, Alison Jacobs, William Keith, Andy Lane, Paul Lee, Steve Maggs, Daniel O’Mahony, Steven Manfred, April McKenna, Iain McLaughlin, Adrian Middleton, Lawrence Miles, Steve Mollmann, Kate Orman, David Owen, David Pitcher, Andrew Pixley, Marc Platt, Jon Preddle, Justin Richards, Gareth Roberts, Trevor Ruppe, Gary Russell, Jim Smith, Robert Smith?, Shannon Sullivan, Dimity Telfer, Richard Thacker, Lynne Thomas, Michael Thomas, Steve Traylen, Stephen James Walker, Peter Ware, Martin Wiggins, Gareth Wigmore, Guy Wigmore, Alex Wilcock and Anthony Wilson.
